Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Based on the result of the flash point determination that was found 58ºC (see endpoint 4.11 Flash point.001), the substance should be considered as flammable liquid substance.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- flammable
Additional information
The flash point is a key measure of the flammability of a liquid. It measures the lowest temperature at which the vapour/air mixture above the liquid can be ignited. Flash point of the substance was examined (see endpoint 4.11 Flash point.001).
The flash point of 58ºC was found.
Based on this study the test substance should be classified as flammable liquid (according to Regulation No 1272/2008 - flash point < 60ºC) and should not be classified as flammable liquid (accordind to 67/548/EEC - flash point > 55ºC).
Conclusion: Based on the above, the substance should be considered as flammable substance.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
